Charles Gatewood: A 40 Year Retrospective

Charles Gatewood

A large-scale Charles Gatewood photography show, featuring 40 years of his provocative underground and erotic photos, opens this Friday, February 3rd at The Center For Sex And Culture in San Francisco.

Charles has this to say about his show:

I will show highlights from my career as “family photographer of America’s erotic underground.” The show will include 45 silver prints, several large silkscreen images, and recent collage work.

Admission is free. There will be light refreshments, erotic readings and a ritual performance.
